Hi everyone,

My 914-6 is now live on BAT:

https://bringatrailer.com/listing/1970-porsche-914-6-29/

If anyone has any suggestions for the listing or can provide input if you have seen the car, please do so.

I think this post is ok here as it's not technically an ad, but if not please just remove it.

What a crazy week to start an auction?!?!

Thanks!

-Steve

It seems like BaT is the new place that cars are selling. Probably a wise choice on your part to use it while it's still a trend.

Nice 914-6!

Thanks for the heads up—will be interesting to watch but the bidding is already strong.

And rightly so, for yours is a gorgeous 914-6.

Definitely watching this. @Siverson your responsiveness and presentation of the car on the BAT listing is going to take the bidding to the next level. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif)

All the best to you! Just looked at the ad and I believe you nailed it. 60K first day is a very nice start. Great responses too, keep it up!

Definitely added that to my watch list this AM- and recognize your avatar subject in the background of some of the pix!

(I like your garage door arrangement too)

I posted too steve. an interior light installed and a dot sticker in the door jamb would have helped. You obviously have spent a bunch of time and money on this car, and I am surprised that you are now selling it. Usually when one has made such a giant commitment to a car (I am sure that you will not get back what you have in it, especially all of that free labor), and wind up with something so nice, they keep the car forever

I love the car and color, but I would like to see the interior light, correct side mirror, stock carpet, speakers, stereo, seatbelts installed, steering wheel, VIN sticker, back pad fixed, door vent grills, frunk carpet, remove screws in trunk, restore the exhaust, and a few other minor issues.

Cleanest orignal /6 at the route 66 gathering
So i would think you would have offers coming left and right

But it is one of those cars that are too nice to drive.
I think
Thats then only flaw i see ....
And every one wants to steal you wheels ... (IMG:style_emoticons/default/pray.gif)

Funny how many people get on BAT to nit pick

yes but wading through, there are many good comments that will enhance the auction and make the buyer appreciate the car

Absolutely and the car speaks for itself. Just always have to laugh at the internet s#it posters. The real buyers usually hide in the shadows until the last 5 minutes (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif)

What happened to all the plastic plugs that hide the screws that hold on the interior vinyl trim pieces?
Seems like everyone of them is missing.
Details, details, details.....
Just the tip of the iceberg, but still a nice looking car.
When I see all the missing or incorrect items, it makes me wonder what else that I can't see is incorrect or missing???

So that would be my suggestion....get as much of this low hanging fruit addressed. Your final sales price will reflect the amount of detail work you have accomplished.
Good luck with the sale.
Again, a very nice looking car.
